The Salvatore Ciampi Beat the Port Caledonia by a Short Head. NARROW ESCAPE OF TWO SEHIP3 The Hollinwood and E lis'and Nearly Went Ashore on the Potato . Patch. With « fair wind and flowing sail one of the largest fleets of deep-water ships that has come to this port in.many a moon got in yesterday. The Golden Gate was crowded with them, and almost every class of sailing and steam craft was repre- sented, There were sugar-boats from Honolulu, coal shipsfrom Australia, barks from European ports, tramp steamers that come and go in the night, tugs in num- bers and a goodly supply of coasters. Among the many that got in was the 8. C. Allen, twenty-two days from Hono- lalu; 1nvermark, seventy-three days from Sydney, N. 8. W.; Jane Burrill, 101 days from Melbourne, Victoria, in baliast; Pe- gasus, 127 days from Swansea; BSalvatore Ciampa, sixty-four days from- Newcastie, N. 8. W.; General Fairchid, eight days from Seattle; Gatherer, twenty-tliree days from Prince Williams Sound with 40,000 cases of salmon; Port Caledonia, sixty-tive days from Newecastle, N. 8. W.; Giory of the Seas from Departure Bay, and the General Siglin, eighteen days from Kodiak with furs. The Ciampi and Poit Cale- donia both made good runs from Aus- tralia, the Italian ship winning the race by the comfortable margin of twenty-four hours. 5 The tramp steamers were all moving to their docks 'and the scow schooners were fully in evidence. All in ali, yesterday was one of the busiest times seen on the bay in monthe. All the arrivals report fair weather, and not an accident marred any of the voy- ages. The Jabez Howes from Philadel- phia made an unusually long trip to the Horn, but once in the Pacific Captain Clapp made up for lost time. Off the Farallones be was caught in_a calm and | was delayed two days. The Howes is the first ship that has come direct to San | Francisco from Philadelphia in manya | day. She carries a cargo of general mer- chandise. During hisspare moments Cap- | tain Clapp made a remarkably handsome | model of a yacht. She is intended as a present for his littie son, and has been named *Maude,” after his daughter. The captain is well known in San Francisco and his many friends were down to wei- come him yesterday when the vessel docked. where outside and her agents are looking for her every minute. She was spoken by both the Jabez Howesand Port Caledonia. | She is not a fast sailer in light winds, but | Captain Murphy can be depended upon to bring his ship in on time. She is one of the handsomest and best kept American vessels that come to this port. The Harbor Commissioners discussed the coal question yesterday. Tney have to get a supply for their tugs and whartf- ingers’ offices and bids were called for. P. B. Cornwall offered white ash-coal at $5 and R.D. Chandler Rosslynn coal at $625. Other bids ranged upward to Duns- muir's $739 for Wellington. Commis- sioner Cole thought the bid should be said an investigation should be made, so the matter was Jaid over for one week. Captain Scott, the pilot, reports that the whistling buoy is out of order, so master mariners will please take notice. A. P. Lorentzen was around town yes- terday. He bas not even the trace of a black eye on his face, and says he was never struck. Nevertheless, he intends to make ‘‘it hot” for the men who have had the audacity to refuse a $150 “lay’ on skins that are worth $500 in the open market. The whole matter will be aired in the Federal courts. The British ships Hollinwood and Ellis- land bad narrow escapes last Monday. Both vessels were towed to seaand cast off beyond the whistling buoy. The wind failed them and they began to drift in toward the Potato Patch. Cap- | tain Meyer had left the Hollinwood, but when he saw the vessel’s danger he at once put back and remained aboard until he worked her ont to sea. .Captain Jordan was on board the Ellisland for fourteen hours before he could make an offing_and turn the vessel over to her. master. Who says the pilots do not earn their salaries once in awhile? : Frank Wilson and Wesley Wilbur stole Harry Lewis’ boat last week and started on a cruise up the San Joaquiu. They were arrested at Antioch and will be brought to Ban Francisco. . DISOBEYED A JUDGE. A Jury That Refused to Acquit a Prisoner When Ordered To Do So. Despite Judge Belther’s instruction to acquit Antone Lengo of a charge of burg- lary the jury in the case yesterday brought in a vérdiet of guilty in the second de- gree. Lengo and Henry Nevel, his room-mate, were arrested on suspicion of having robbed several places. A quantity of stolen property was found in their room. It was proved during the trial, however, that Lengo was not implicated with his chum, and on motion of the defense Judge Belcher instructed the jury to bring in a verdict of not guilty. After a long discussion the twelve talesmen overruled the instruction of the court and brought in the decision mentioned. A new trial, at which Lepgo will be ac- quitted, will probably be granted. —————— POPULAR RATES. Another Inexpensive Outing at Camp Taylor Next Sunday. Many people who desired to avail them- selves of the recent 75.cent rate to Camp Taylor did not go on account of the threat- ening weather, so Mr. Locke has arranged for another excursion to that delightful seotion for next Sunday, on which occa- sion the popular 75-cent rate for adults and 40 cents for children under 12 will pre- vail. People who want six hours in the redwoods on Paper-mill Creek can go on the 8 o'clock Sausalito boat, while those who will be content with four hours will be given a special trdin with seats reserved, but tickets for reserved seats must be pro- cured at 333 O'Farrell street before Satur- day next at 9 p.

Discussion of Matters of Great Interest to the Dairy Industry. CHEESE-MAKING AS IT Is. Major Alvord of the United States Bureau of Animal Industry on Tubercelin. The annual conventioa of the California Dairy Association was callea to order in the Chamber of Commerce rooms, yester- day morning, with Joseph Maillard of San Geronimo as president and Samuel E ‘Watson. as secretary. The president, in his annual address, dwelt upon the association, its objects and the work that had been accomplished. He said many dairymen were not aware safest, becanse the difficuities in the way of such supervision are obviously so great that some years must elapse before any measure of an effective kind could be car- ried into operation in American cities, where political positions are not always wisely filled. He spoke of the use of tuberculin for the pur;lxose of discovering tuberculosis in cattle, said it is most effective and spoke { in favor of its use in this State. Major Alvord of the United States Bureau of Animal Industry spoke in a general way of the manner in which the Government issues tuberculin. He said that it is sent to boards of health and to | persons who give evidence of fitness to | use the tuberculin and furnish results. The secratary read a letter from H. H. Taylor of the Milbrae aairy suggesting that the use of tuberculin should be made to conform to the condition of the local cow, and that the University of Cali~ fornia should manufacture the tuberculin and furnish it at cost. He also suggested i that if a cow is found affected the owner | should be allowed to drive it to a fertilizer factory soas to be enabled to obtamn a | certain remuneration for the property he | is forced to aestroy. There was a discussion on the present methods of inspection in this State and | the necessity of alaw that would provide | compensation for animals that may have i | to be destroyed. The matter of the man- ver in which the San Francisco Board of Health acts in quarantining milk was mentioned, and Mr. Howard stated that { he was having a legal opinion prepared | which he will present to-day. | . Professor M, K. Jaffa of the agricultural | department of the University of California read a paper on cattle foods. He went |into a long technical explanation of the | relative value of foods for cattle and gave | the result of analyses of California and Eastern food. The foods dwelt upon were mixed feed, shorts, middlings, bran | (wheat), bran linseed, oatcake meal, co- oanut meal, cottonseed meal, burr clover, beet pulp, beet pulp silage, clover and corn silage. Beet pulp, he declares, has proved a most valuable food for cows. J. G. Pearson, superintendent of the Fallon creamery of Tomales, read a very MAJOR ALVORD of the United States Bureau of Animal Industry. that the association had been organized to aid the industry in getting legislation and otherwise, It simed to place the aairy- men of this State on a level'with those of the East, who had superior educational advantages. One of the chief objects was to prevent, by legislation and other means, the adulteration of products. The first year of the association was an important one, as the battle against oleomargarine was fought and won, with the result that the markel was now in a better condition than it woula otherwise have been. There had been an overproduction of butter and cheese, as many had engaged in dairying because they had failed in other pursnits. ! Notwithstanding the quantitative over- production the quality was not such as would command a market outside of the State. The speaker called attention to | the need of education in dairying, such as was given in other States. As to tuber- culosis, all dairymen hoped some way would be found of protecting the public health without injuring the dairymen. As 2 means to this he advised a strength- ening of the association. Mr. Rousell moved the appointment of an_investigating committee to inspect dairies in which it was complained that cows were affected with tuberculosis. Mr. .Le Baron urged the action of the associdtion in securing good roads. E. F. Adams suggested that the average of California butter should be raised. At the afternoon session there was a full attendance, and the first paper read was by P P K. 'Brown, representing the Acad- emy of Sciences, on theinspection of dairy cows for tuberculosis. In the outset he called the attention of the meeting to a treatise on tuberculosis and its effect on the human race. He then described the bacilli and the number that are thrown off by a patient affected by tuberculosis. He showed that by the experiments of Professor Ernest the milk from a cow affected with tuberculosis is exceedingly dangerous, particularly when the nader is affected with the disease. The presence of the disease is often found in cows with- out the udder being affected. He then spoke of the character of the meat of the tuberculosis-affected animal and the methods that are employed in Germany to prevent the aisposition of such meat for human fcod. The propor trip. Boating, bathing, bowling and short carriage drives at a nominal charge are among the attractions of the trip, and the ride, while not being long anda tire- some, is one of the most pleasant out of the metropolis. The return trip will start at4p. M. and reach the City at 6 ». M. Btandard coaches and open cars will be used to suit the tastes of all who go. tion of the people who are affected bv par- taking of meat of tuberculosis-affected -animals, he said, could not be determined. The way to destroy tuberculosis that may be in meat used for food is first by boiling, tyh:.n‘lamnfing and last by eooking be- fire. T ition to regulate the food for m:::m‘“by officials is not always the interesting paper on cheese-makingin Cal- ifornia. e showed that in 1850 150 pounds of cheese was made in this State; in 1860, 1,343,000 pounds; in 1870, 4,395,000 unds; in 1890, 4,962,000 pounds, and in 895, 9,000,000 pounds. He decla: that California has greater advantages for cheese-making than the East, yet the in- dustry is not carried out as it should be, as 1s shown by the large importation from the East and the reduced price for which California has to sell in order to compete. This entaiis a loss to California dairymen of $320,000. This could be saved to them if they would manufacturea better quality of cheese—in fact California cheese can be made to attain a repute as great as that possessed by California fruit. He urged the establishment of a school of fastruc- tion, so that dairymen could learn how to make first-class cheese,, Professor Wickson said that he indorsed all that Mr. Pearson had s but thought he had not stated it strong enough. President Mailiard said that it was a shame that people should have to buy Eastern cheese if they want a quality that will last for several days. . Major Alvord, upon request, said a few words on the subject of cheese-making, stating that California, so far as his obser- vations went, has very great advantages for the industry. He urged the dairymen te stick to full cream cheese if they deésired to keep up a good reputation. He called attention to the fact that the exclusive use of alfalfe as food for cows has a tendency to give milk, butter and cheese a taste that is not agreeable. In answer to a question, he said that while it was true that skim miik cheese is nntll;moul. it is not advisable to make such. The programme for to-day will be: At the morning session Professor C. W. Woodworth will advance some ideason important points in State inspection; Major Alvord of the Bursau of Annual In- dustry will suggest plans for securing dl&!r‘v legislation; in the afternoon. Dr. R. H. Freund will give results of wicroscopic research into the nature of tuberculosis bacilli; Professor Wickson will read a paper on “What the cow ought to do for the dairyman, and what the dairymuan ought to do for the cow’’; there will be a paper by A. H. Bhrite on creamery man- lfemant; William Vanderbilt, secretary of the California burean, will recommend the revising the gnunt dairy law; the secretary will read his report on the year's work, and in the evening officers will be elected, after which there will be an ad- journment to the Mechanics’ Pavilion.

Colonel Ritchey was elected chairman of the meeting and Colonel D. E. Miles sec- retary. It was announced by the chairman that a round trip rate of $7250 had been al- lowed by the Transcontinental Associa- tion. While the date of departure has not been definitely fixed it is thought that Oc- tober 12 will be the day. The excursion- ists themselves may elect the route. In order to secure the rate offered one hun- dred tickets must be taken. It is proposed that the excursionists shall represent the leading industries of Califcrnia, such as wool, fruit, lumber, shipping, banking, manufacturing and railroads. Advocates of the Nicaragua canal are to be a feature of the pilgrimage. The limit of the excursion privilege is thirty days and the excursionists must go in a body. George H. Pippy, 623 Market street, will receive applications from citi- zens in this part of the State who desire to make the trip. Last evening Colonel William Mac- donald was elected vice-president and authorized to call a meeting of the excur- sion advocates in this vieinity whenever he shall deem it necessary. Colonel Ritchey of Redlands and G. J. Griffiths of Los Angeles will attend to ssimilu duties in the southern part of the tate, Colonel Ritchey has received many assurances, which lead him to believe that the requisite number of subscribers will soon be enrolled. FRAUDULENT GRANT United States Grand Jury Investigating Alleged Land Swindles in Butte County. The United States Grana Jury yesterday took up the matter of the Government against Lincoln Brodt of Butte County, who is accused by Parry and Merry, own- ers of the Alki mine, of fraundulently en- tering as timber lands property that for twenty years or more has been famous for its mineral resources. The full details of the storly were pub- lished in TrE CaLL of Sunday last, There_were nine witnesses before the Grand Jury yesterday. They were Reed M. Ingraham, James Bollinger, J. K. Strada, N. Hupp, R. D. Jonmes, A. L. Cohen and George Parry, the last named being one of the owners of t 1ki mine, All the witnesses so far examined swear positively that the property in dispute has always been regarded as mineral land, and this is further emphasiz:d by the fact that several mines are now in actual operation, :‘oubly the one owned by Parry and erry. Other witnesses from Butte County will be examined next ‘I'uesday, when an in- dictment may probably be returned. ——————— Fell to His Death. Enrico Spingula, the seventeen-months-old boy of Mr. and Mrs. J. Spingula, 427 Green street, died yesterday as the result of injuries received Sunday afternoon. The little fellow was playing in the front parior, and pushing & chair up to the open window he leaned out, lost his balance and tumbled to the hard avement ten feet below, striking on his head. rs.

A PERMANENT ORGANIZATION The Citizens’ ' Independent Convention Strength- ening Itself. Candidates Who Declined Because They Were Otherwise Engaged. TO FORM A COUNTY COMMITTEE The Proposed Plan Will Embrace Some Novel Features in Party Government. The Citizens’ Independent convention resumed work on its list of candidates last night. J. H. Gray was taken down as nominee for School Director at his own request. Mr. Gray declined to run incon- sequence of a pressure of business. In his place Dr. J. G. Crawford, a man witha rand Army record, was substituted. To fill the unexpired term of School Directors Dr. J. H. Soper and T. R. Knox were nominated. C.J. Hutchins of 715 Golden Gate ave- nue was given the nomination for State Senator for the Twenty-first District. C. H. Wetgen was nominated for Tax Col- lector. Having fixed up the list thus far, and satisfying B. P. Mallatratt that his favor- ites, Wallace Bradford and H. C. Hender~ son, would not be disturbed, the conven- tion mapped out a course for future litical existence by providing for a unty Committee, which will, when per- fected, consist of Dr. George L. Fitch, Z. T. Whitten, A. C. Smith, D. Forster and W. D. Kingsbury as dele- gatesat large, with one member from each council, club, lodee or other saub-organiza- tion, and also one delegate at large from the fraternal society to which the branch belonys. These will comprise the incoming County Committee which will sow the seed for a permanent political organization. it is expected that the work of the con- vention will be completed at to-morrow night's meeting. FIBST TRAIN T0' FRESHO Passengers to Be Carried There on the Valley Road on ; Monday. Will Take the Invited Guests Who Are to Participate in the Celebration. Most of the session held by the airectors of the San Francisco and San Joaquin Valley Railway Company yesterday was devoted to the consideration of the re- quest of the Frésno celebration commit- tee for an excursion train on October 5, Labor day. The Fresno people propose to make that day one long to be remembered by every one who is fortunate enough to be in the metropolis of the raisin belt on that date. The advent of the Valley road is the chief motive for the celebration, and as most fitting and appropriate to the occasion the committee has asked the Valley road offi- cials to provide aad operate its first pas- senger train between Stockton and Fresno on tne day in question. It took little time to accede to the wishes of the Fresnoites, most of the discussion being in the form of suggestions as to how to arrange things so as to best Fluu the people of Fresno. 1t was finally decided to make up a train of the six fine passen- ger coaches now at Stockton ana two of the combination smoking and baggage cars and place it at the disposal of the celebration committee. Transportation on this train will be IT'S CURES THAT COUNT. Many so-called remedies are presseg on the public attention on account of their claimed large sales. But sales cannot determine values.

It has the | world for its market. But ¢ sales prove nothing. We point only to the record of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, as proof of its merit: 50 YEARS OF CURES. e e e i served for the invited guests of Fresno only and stops will be made at the various stations along the route to take aboard such guests. Among those who are to be invited are Governor -Budd and_his staff, the directors of the Valley road and rep- reseniatives of the newspapers of this City. The directors will leave here for Stockton on Sunday evening, lay over at Btockton during the night and proceed to Fresno on the Valley road’s first passen- ger train on Monday morning. The re- turn trip of the train will be made at8 o’clock Monday night. Contracts were awarded by the directors vesterday for the treicht depot and the turn-table at Fresno. The depot is to cost between $4000 and $5000 and work on it will be begun in about two weeks. Regular passenger business wiil not be inaugurated on the Valley road until proper facilities can be provided for trav- elers all along the line and at the termi- nais. — e NEW TO-LAY—AMUSEMENTS. e oy TIVOLI OPERA-HOUSE MEs.ERNESTINE KRELING.
